Keep that starving student mindset.

A recent survey showed that a majority of young people between 18 and 34 admit that they waste money on things they don’t really need and would like to scale back their spending. The good news is that most college students have already been living on a limited budget so they wouldn’t have to make a major adjustment to maintain their frugal lifestyle into their working lives. This can include living with roommates, keeping an older car longer, and not spending too much on discretionary expenses like shopping or eating out. Keep in mind that it will be a lot harder to change your spending habits once you get used to a more expensive lifestyle.
